Support

Librarian and Patron exchange

You can help your Fort Smith Public Library be the best it can be.  Your support helps the library extent its reach and deepen its impact in our community.

Donate

Your support in the form of financial gifts and donations helps the library bridge the gaps in its public funding sources and allows the library to provide the highest level of service to everyone who uses the Fort Smith Public Library. 

See the Donate page for information on the options for giving to the library, the Friends of the Library, and the Endowment Trust.

Advocate

You can also help support the Fort Smith Public Library and all libraries by using your voice to share with your community, legislators, and the media how libraries positively impact your life and the lives of others.  In addition to local funding, a portion of the Fort Smith Public Library’s programs and services are funded through state and federal sources.  These funds help provide high-speed internet, access to databases, and some of our annual summer reading program and prizes.
